Late Review

Alien Hominid HD is a terrific game full of fun characters and a great sense of humour. The only drawback is that it is quite short; I didn't want it to end!

Alien Hominid HD is definitely simple, but there’s a lot of charm to be found in this old-school package. If you’re looking for a good challenge filled with goofy moments that won’t take up too much of your time, this is a solid enough pick.

Late Review

With its charming hand-drawn animations and snappy, yet demanding gameplay, Alien Hominid HD is a game that has stood the test of time. The revitalization of this title in 2025 means that gamers who were born after the golden age of flash games can get a peek into the past and come across the origins of key gameplay mechanics that are standard issue in today’s gaming climate.

It’s funny, it’s crass, it is super entertaining with a friend or by yourself, but also brutally unfair. Alien Hominid HD is a pretty good remaster of a cult class of an arcade game, but be ready to scream at it from time to time. It’s straight to the point: a solid revamp of a silly run and gun shooter from back in the day, complete with visual improvements, solid performance, and a ton of side content to keep you busy if the main campaign is too stressful for newcomers.
